New to Milsurps but not to collecting. Recently interested in military rifles and hope to learn from the experience on the forum.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Hello everyone. I'm sort of new to this Milsurp rifle thing.

So far i only have 1944 Mosin-Nagant, a 1944 M-1 Garand icon

and a 1908 Swedish icon

Mauser. I hope to find myself a 1903 Springfield but I'm still reeling from my recent M-1 purchase.

I'm happy to be here.

Hello Folks,
New member, here. I recently purchased a 1912 Krag icon

which is in need of some parts to get it back to original form. Was looking around on the internet and came across this site which looks to be the most informative available.
Thanks in advance for any info/insights offered.

Regards

While I am a new member, I am not new to collecting, having been at it for over 50 years, plus or minus.

Hello! I recently obtained an Inland 7-43 and am trying to get more information about the markings and integrity of this wonderful specimen.
